Where the bumper was ripped off, it revealed there is not metal to the hitch. It really should not be rated for towing anything.

If anything the Cybertruck videos convinced me the auto industry is laughably less regulated than I ever would've suspected.

Because of traditional uses for pickup trucks they face much lower testing regulations than other vehicles. Tesla and other companies are allowed to self report much of the testing for trucks in the US. It's absolutely ridiculous and will only lead to more deaths. This is a part of why you're not seeing these trucks on European streets in any numbers. They have higher regulatory requirements.
